AWESOMENESS in the HOUSE!

Last YES Camp. O_______O

It was as though the previous YES camp had only been about seven months ago . . . which it was hahahaha. I still remember most of the things we did and how I felt at that time. It kind of makes me laugh now. :P But I was expecting this camp to be more fun because there are more members (especially from the freshmen) and we've been preparing for this with Sir Mike for a long time.

Tent-pitching was allowed since lunch time . . . But we seniors who had a LOT to do the whole day - either practicing or teaching our batch yell, meeting for Teachers' Day, and preparing for the camp as facilitators - couldn't find a time to set up our tents until after dismissal. But by that time a lot of spaces had been occupied by the other year levels, including the last row that was supposedly reserved for us seniors. So we had to find our own spot, and our tent wasn't even nowhere near Regina, Valerie and Meg's, because theirs was on the other side. Tsk. :'(

The campers were oriented in the gym for what was going to go down during the night. We facis went out of the gym to prepare for the team-building activities. Nothing was happening yet, so I sat down with Vielka and Regina with Tr. Jean. Hahaha. Well that hyped me up, Vielka kasi with her corny jokes, and then I remembered Emi and Jamsy's Guess the Song and shared it with them. Ahaha. And then, all of a sudden, a whistle was blown, and they were like, "Uy guys ayan na sila!" I rushed to the Chieri classroom with Margie and we saw one group on the other side trying to get inside too, but it was locked! We ran to them and did it along the corridor instead. Our station was the "Yell It!" where the different groups would have to make a yell and present it in front of everyone in the bonfire. But while the 2nd group was practicing we were called to have dinner.

Dinner was a hearty meal . . . and it felt great. x) We went back to the stations and they proceeded with the activities. So one group ran out of time and they got sort of mad at us . . . Well, not mad, but they're not exactly happy with it . . . :P And then after that we went in the Suginami Hall for the seminar on Sci-Dama. We facis just roamed around and distributed the boards, and I already knew how to play it, so I just taught some how to play for a while. Haha. I guess you could call it free time for us . . . B-) Lolz.

After that we headed outside the gym where the bonfire had been started. The campers were still practicing their yell to present it, and after some minutes the presentations started. Margie and I ranked their yells and decided the winner. >:) Oyes! Haha! Then we played with the bonfire, which was really fun. Some even played with their marshmallows on sticks. :)))) Lolz. Hahaha. After all that, they called for us to sleep . . . I didn't sleep right away though, 'cause I couldn't. I had a mini-concert outside our tent even if no one was listening, then I took a walk with Meg by the camp site. She said it was like we were walking by the beach, and so I said we were already swimming underwater and we were snorkeling hahaha =)) Waa laugh trip. May topak ako nung gabi. xP

So finally I went in our tent and started eating with Michie, Vielka and Hanna. \m/ :)))) We had a sharing. :') Weeee. Hehehe. And as usual we had some moments that made us laugh like crazies that we had to bury our faces in the pillow so that we couldn't be heard =)))) Haha! XD At about 1 in the morning, we decided to lie down and one by one we fell asleep. Only this time I was the last to sleep. O_______O Weird! x) Hahaha. But at least I did.

I started feeling something on my hands and face. At first I thought it was just air (yeah yeah it's weird to think that it's air) but it wouldn't stop. My brain was only starting to wake up. I felt water on my skin. I opened my eyes and saw Michie up. I said, "Michie, umaambon." I heard her say, "Oo, kanina pa." I heard it, but it didn't sink until a few seconds later and I said, "Shocks umuulan na! Michie yung cover ng tent" And the droplets of water hit us faster. Michie went out to get the cover of our tent. Phew :) Hanna was up by that time too, and they fixed the position of the cover so that it wouldn't come inside. We woke Vielka up because she was still in a deep slumber. :)) When Hanna and Michie were done with the cover they went back inside. We were just sitting for a while, and we were quiet. Then we saw Vielka munching on the Chippy from the night =))))))))) Yeah that made us laugh :)) Like we were all so serious and she was there, eating =))) Hahahaha =)) Ahh Vielka =))

We lay back down in the tent. It was just 2a.m. when the first attack of the rain occurred. That actually surprised me because I thought I'd been sleeping comfortably for at least three or four hours. But nooooo, the rain had to wake us up just an hour after we'd closed our eyes. x( Haha. But there was a second attack of the rain. Dang -.- Yeah. Hahahahaha. And then I woke up again, but I was just lying in the tent. Hanna was talking to Michie who was already outside. They were saying goodbye, because Michie was gonna go home and prepare for the LSMS. Hehehe. :> I don't remember if I opened my mouth but she said she didn't hear me :)) Wahaha!

Finally we woke up for the camp proper. Ahahaha. We just sat down for a while and then changed clothes. Then Sir Mike called us facis for the survival games :> We went to Tr. Carol to explain to us what would go down during the game. >:) Oyes hahaha. After that we headed to the canteen for breakfast. Mmmm. After that everyone was called in the gym so that Tr. Carol could explain it to them. We facis went out again to prepare the obstacles. Woohoo! Finally, the men were deployed. =)))) Lolz hahaha.

So we just watched :)) Lolz. I envied them but at the same time I didn't :)) I wanted to play but I didn't want to get dirty too hahaha. Hmmmmm, I have nothing much to say here :)) I think everyone had fun, though. xD They even played with the hose. Lolz. After that was shower time, but I didn't go right away :)))) There were just too much peeps in the showers. Yeahhhhh O_______________O

There was a seminar on biodiversity hahaha. I just sat down beside Regina because we didn't have groups 'cause we're facis. Ahehe. Although Vielka and Eminence and some other facis were with the rest of the seniors. Lolz. And then lunch time xP Ahaha. Then we went back to the Suginami Hall for the thingy . . . the dome . . . Yeah I forgot what it's called. :)) Making it was fun though. :D Hehehe. Vielka and I went with Hanna and Meg's group, Group E. And would you believe that our replica was one of the top 2? :> We didn't win though =)) Too bad. But at least! :D

Yes, the awarding ceremony came after that. Guess what group won the Yell It. >:) The group that got "mad" at us because they didn't have enough time to conceptualize and practice :)))) And guess which group that was? Group E! :))))) Oh yeah! Hahaha! :P :> I forgot the rest of the awarding ceremony because we weren't included in any of them :)) Hehehe. So yeah. XP And after that we packed our bags and went home. Lolz.

Last YES Camp forever . . . It was a memorable one, as all my other YES Camps had been too. :') I'm blessed to be a part of this. :)
